That line just grabbed the bull by the horns. They could have had four or five goals in the second period.
five game goal greatly guys night skate stand
Every night it's highlight-reel goal after highlight-reel goal. You'll get to see probably five a night in our league. And the guys that can skate are the guys who stand out. I think the game has greatly improved.
apology call distinct five guy judge kicked kicking lasted league reviews seconds sure took type understand video
It's a distinct kicking motion. It was kicked in, and I'm sure we'll get an apology from the league on it. We've had reviews that lasted five minutes. That took two seconds and the guy kicked it in? Come on, I don't understand how a video judge here can make that type of call when it's that distinct.

We expected to be a good team, but nobody expects something like this.
